Blockchain News Where You Are!

Heap is one of a group of artists and coders who are using blockchain technology to revolutionise the way music is shared. On Friday 2 October she releases her song Tiny Human, and its associated data, into the wild at a special Guardian Live event.

The launch will serve as an experiment for creators, developers, hackers and technophiles to brainstorm, collaborate and test out current and work-in-progress platforms.

Over the following 24 hours, the team will track and report back on the performance and possibilities of this new way of connecting artists with audiences.
